• Windows Forms Button Text and Image depression

  Does buttons with image embedded on them synchronize both text and image depression while clicking them in .Net2.0 I could find that when a new project in VS2005 is created and the form contains the button control, the look and feel at runtime satisfies the requirement. However, when I use a project originally developed in VS2003/.Net1.1 & now migrated , placing a button from .Net2.0, the run time does have the same problem. ...Show All

• SQL Server How do you create Users?

There is a great deal of information about how to create role assignments and define what each role can do, but I can find nothing about how to define WHO belongs to each role. I have had to make all folders accessable to the Everyone role so they can get in, but I want to give some people access to some folders and ...Show All

• Visual C# ArrayList copying a class

  I am reading a .csv file and loading each record that I read into a class then populating the class into an array list. The issue I have is that the class contains strings and seems to be copied by reference in the array list. Therefore causing an issue when adding additional records the reference is just being written multiple times in the arraylist with the same pointer. A friend suggested I use a dataset instead of an arraylist. I have to do ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) InvalidOperationException: Open DataReader using DataContext.Connection

  Hi, What's the best way to receive the total row count of an ITable acquired through reflection Since reflection is used, System.Query.Count() is unavailable. The next thought is to use ExecuteQuery<T>(string, object[]). An attempt to call DataContext.ExecuteQuery<int>("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM SomeTable"); produces an error: Message="GenericArguments[0], 'System.Int32', on 'System.Data.DLinq.Model.FieldAcc ...Show All

• SQL Server Sorting an XML Source & Memory Consumption.

  Hi there, I have a large XML document (100Mg) that I want to process through a data flow process. Part of the process is to Sort the various relational tables created by the XML Source - then merge join them. The Sorts consume all the available memory and the process grinds to a halt. However, if I source the same data from SQL tables, the sorts don't consume anywhere near as much memory. So a couple of questions: 1. Is there ...Show All

  I've been trying to add a web reference to a web service that was created some time ago in Visual Studio 2003.  This web service works fine and is linked to from several smart device projects.

• Architecture VS 2005 and multiple projects.

  I was told by someone that Visual Studio 2005 has moved away from multiple projects in a solution. I don't believe this for a second, but I wanted to see if 1) it really was true and 2) if there is any info I could draw from to counter that argument. Also, do many of you consider the information in this article: ( http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp url=/library/en-us/dndotnet/html/designnetapp.asp ) a bit outdated And b ...Show All
